Hey all,
Anyone else been waiting for Chaos Group to
offer up a V-Ray for Blender 2.8+? Since switching over from Max I've
been sitting on my hands waiting/hoping for V-Ray to come along too. So
far, over a year since 2.8, there's been nothing heard from the Chaos
lads.
Let
me say, also, that I'm very happy with Cycles and Eevee - and a few
other renderers, like Octane and Red Shift, have picked up the slack.
It's just puzzling at this point the lack of a Blender release from
V-Ray. Is it a revenue issue? Or lack of interest? I feel like Blender is coming into it's own - enough to warrant a release for major versions.
Thoughts?

Last time I asked one of the devs on the Chaos Group the said they now had a developer working on the Blender version but from my feeling they are stretched very thin on the ground. The ones they have announced recently seem to be the ones with the most devs or the most experience in.
While it is frustrating to wait I think they are finally moving slowly in the right direction, hell even Redshift is on Blender so they can't sit bak any longer. By the way had Redshift been on Modo I would have gone that way too. But I do like v-ray so happy I didn't.
Moral of this is we have to wait and see, it will come but I have no idea when, next spring maybe?
